“Valley of the Kings” is the fifth track on Nico’s fourth studio album The End…
Much like “Janitor of Lunacy” on its predecessor Desertshore, this track was left untouched by John Cale’s arrangements, ending up as a harmonium solo by Nico’s insistence.
Valley of the Kings Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The bandits be my weaknesses
His fault shall be my knife
His weapon be
His weapon be my innocence
The killer must not die
[Verse 2]
Is there a charge against my fate?
Can't I betray my hate?
Will I regain my father's gait?
Must the killer die?
[Verse 3]
The testament lies hidden from me
Underneath my sins
A carriage
A carriage will take me to
The Valley of the Kings
